When you sell your vote...you get what you pay for. Pretty simple really.

Seems to me that there is a requirement that your passport has to have and expire date of months past the visa expire date...could this be an issue?
I do agree...be polite and smile no matter the turmoil churning inside1

The Embassy uses the net figure, however, the Honorary Consul in Pattaya has been using the gross figure as he is aware many people have been hit by the low exchange rate, I have never been questioned on this by Pattaya immigration in five years of getting permission to stay based on retirement but that might be because the consul is also a volunteer in Jomtien immigration and well respected by the Thai Immigration authorities here.
I am led to believe that embassy guidelines state the net figure is the one to be used.
Why don't you offer copies of your bank deposits for the past year that would include your rental income?

As for internet in Chaiyaphum...I also live in a small village in changwat Chaiyaphum and I have a CAT/CDMA USB Modem that works great. You may need an external antenna, depending how far you are from a CAT tower. Around B8,000 plus 800 bhat per month if you want 7/24.

If this house is near Buriram I suggest you go in person and sit down with the owner of the "Pump Shop" on Sunthong Thep Road that is about 2 blocks from the Bangkok Bank main Branch. This BUSY tool and pump shop has a large POLICE HAT where an officer might sit. It is about 3 blocks away from Pizza Company and Big Bikes.
The owner of this shop UNDERSTANDS and can speak English. He can send a competent, experienced staff person to your home at no charge and no obligation to see your situation and draw out some suggestions. The staff person will not speak or understand English so have your wife translate. Then if you sit down again with the shop owner again he can give you options that include GUARANTEED installation. His price will be lower than Home Mart, Mega Home Mart, Home Pro, etc.. for the brand and model of pump for your specific needs. He carries some nice tanks at the lowest price. His staff will do a great job INSTALLING and testing the system and then you pay when they are done. If you need follow up service he will give you his personal mobile phone number and he has sent a repair person to our home on 40 minutes notice. This shop has consistently had the lowest price and a real one year guarantee on any power tools I purchased. They have a warehouse nearby full of water tanks as they supply (and service) the Village Water systems to a wide area, not just Buriram Province. Many shops give you a "run around" on after sales service, but this shop is 100% professional. You can also get a fair price on water filtering options.
We live about 200km from Buriram (Chaiyaphum province) and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a similar vendor in Khorat or Chaiyaphum, OR will the Buriram vendor make the trip? Is there a telephone number I can call? I am contemplating a system with an input filter, 2000Liter tank, Mitsubishi (305Q2)pump, and pressure tank...all connected like the schematic elsewhere in this forum.
The first-pass quote I received from a shop in Khorat has given me pause, so I want to check around for alternatives for comparrison.
Any guidance will be greatly appreciated.
Shipping Personal Belongings After Building New House In Thailand

Short answer: NO...but make sure you have ALL of her old passports on your person.
Customs will verify that you have not used the exemption previously. We shipped a 40 foot container
back in 2005 and my wife's old (Thai and U.S.) passports were in a safe inside the container. It took
some high level intervention (not cash) to get custom to allow us to open the container and
retrieve the passports. No problem once the passports were produced.
AFTER...a gratuity was offered but politely refused.
